Auto-Responbder (hearts) Roxy: Trope- Throwing pebbles at a window: Humanstuck, AR throws pebbles at Roxy's window at night to try and get her to sneak out with him
Roxy Lalonde was not the sort of girl that was unprepared for pebbles flung against her window. She was a very pretty, very smart girl. And her best friend had a thing for old movies with really cliché shtick like that. The sort of thing that meant every time they went out at night, there were always pebbles thrown at her window to get her attention. It was tradition.
So yeah, she was very familiar with pebbles and windows and late nights and sneaky revelry. And so were the Striders, the very Texan, extended family that lived next door. The eldest, Dirk, tended to cross paths with her (and Jane-y, of course) whenever they snuck out…Apparently Dirk had a secret boyfriend.
The youngest Strider was Dave, youngest being a relative term (the age gap was only like three or so years), and while Jane might be crushing on him, Roxy found herself drawn to Dirk's identical twin brother Hale "Li'l Hal" or just "Hal" Strider. She'd only met the quieter half of the Strider twins once, though they saw each other often enough in the halls of school. He was cute, and he was funny, and she really, really liked him.
In fact, she liked him enough that even Jane had picked up on her crush (and then proceeded to tease her about it). But yeah, tonight was her night. Tonight she was going to sneak out the front door, sidle on over to the Strider's house, throw rocks at Hal's window, suavely offer him a drink, and together they'd ride off into the sunset all lovey-dovey and maybe with some smooches. That would be nice.
Simply smoothing out the skirt of her favorite dress one more time, just to be sure she wasn't looking rumpled when she pulled Hal out of his slumber, she slipped out of her room. She had to take the stairs slowly, because their house was older and the steps creaked if she moved too quickly, but she got to the front door without waking up her mother, her aunt, or her younger sister.
Cracking the door open, she checked behind her out of paranoia, but once reassured she was the only one moving in her house, she escaped. Stifling manic giggles, Roxy kept her gaze firmly locked over her shoulder. Unfortunately, she didn't see where she was going, and ran into something solid and ended up falling backwards with a loud shriek.
"Dirk?" She asked, flat on her back, as she caught sight of patent Strider shades.
"Hal." Came the answering groan, from the familiar shadow that had also been knocked on his ass.
"What are you doing in my yard?"
Hal tossed her a pebble, "Was going to ask you something." Roxy's heart leapt, and her face warmed in a blush. "Wanna go to a movie? With me?" Roxy broke into a beaming grin, and nodded happily even though he couldn't see it.
"Yes! I mean, yeah. That'd be great!"
